Love / Loss

 And I am in love, and I am terrified.

There goes Katharine, my cue that I should stop, I should calm myself. I had to change my mood before my sister notices.

I stopped but tears still rolled down my cheeks.

I sat silently in the veranda, wrapped my cardigan tighter to keep myself warm. That was the second time that I sobbed because of him. I had to cut our conversation so he wouldn't notice. Indeed, he didn't.

I shouldn't feel this way. I knew from the beginning that everything will change and it would be pretty tough especially for me. I don't think it was a hasty decision because I was aware of it. I wanted it. I consciously agreed to it. And here I am, repairing my heart that suffers disappointment almost every day. 

What I fear most these days is not of losing him one day, though I am almost certain it would not happen. On the contrary, I am afraid that I may lose myself along the way. 

For days I have been in conflict with myself. I don't know why but I've been wanting to go back to the old me. When I was unattached, when I never had to care for someone so much. I can't remember anymore, it is as if I had forgotten how I was before. And it scares me.

I am so confused and I despise it that he had to ask why. He told me not think too much, and that I have exams. Well, thank God for an on/off switch!

Nobody said relationships are easy, yet how come everyone wants a piece of it?

Hello, Miko Miko: Miko Miko Beach Resort Review

We finally drove our first car three Saturdays ago. It's a 2021 Toyota Hilux Conquest which my husband had been eyeing for months! We had been going back and forth about getting a car this year since we have a church wedding to prepare for. Although we have enough savings for both, we still have to be wise with our expenses. We were bidding our time, too, because we were also waiting for our car option B. But when the sales manager at Toyota Calbayog informed us that there was a unit coming last May, we saw it as a confirmation and immediately applied for a car loan.  Hey, everyone, meet our Burdagul! 🚘 A week after we took Burdags home we went on a joyride to break it in. We decided to go north since I haven't been there. We were supposed to check in at Langtaran Grove White Beach at Catarman, Northern Samar but it was packed. So we had to find another one. If ever you're wondering, yes we did not book a hotel prior our travel. We were trying to be spontaneous! 😂 After a...

There Will Be Days

Dandelion by Kamsar Ohanyan, 2021 There will be days when you wake up to a cuddle There will be days when mornings are a struggle There will be days when dancing feels good There will be days when music just can't give the right mood  There will be days when the food on the plate is wiped clean There will be days when a grain's left untouched or so it seems  There will be days when laughter echoes everywhere There will be days when not even a cricket's sound you can hear   There will be days when a short walk is enough to keep it at bay There will be days when you kneel and plead to make it go away There are days when the faintest of sunshine hurts your eyes And there are days when raindrops sound like solemn lullabies.
